AZEM Overview

AZ Electronic Materials has been around since the 1950s. It takes its name from the photochemical compound diAZo, first developed around 1943 to create photosensitive offset printing plates, then used for photoresists in integrated circuits and now also used in flat panel displays. The company produces high quality, high-purity speciality chemicals and materials for use in integrated circuits and devices, flat panel displays, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and photolithographic printing.
